FoO presents the Calendar's first offical, and rather silly, awards ceremony. It is now over, but I'll leave this here so you can chack out the winners if you missed it. Go on, have a look'see...

WARNING: Exam Season, RPGs may move slowly.

WhatistheCalendar?Howdoesitwork?

The Calendar is basically a floodgate. It is here to stop tirades of RPG's flooding the forum, then dieing, then there being a period where no RPG's exist.

To this end the calendar exists. When you come up with an RPG idea you submit it, then when enough have said that they're interested you go on the waiting list until there is a slot and then the RPG can begin!

HowdoIsubmitmyRPG?

To submit an RPG to the community fill in this simple form

RPG Name: (The title of your RPG)Moderator: (Your forum name)Plot: (The plot for your RPG, this could be your title crawl)Character/Faction Based: (Just put down character, faction or either if you haven't decided)Number of people interested: (I'll fill this in as we go along. This field will be deleted when your RPG has reached 5 people)

Arethereanyrules?

Yes, these rules are not subject to change, but most are common sense anyway

-If you have a problem contact me, my email is friend_of_old@hotmail.co.uk

-To make things easier to run here I have introduced a colour coding system for important postsType RPG Idea... in Bold Red if you are submitting an ideaType Interested in... in Bold Lime if you are interested in an ideaType Update for... in Bold Orange if you want me to update something on the main postType Probation for... in Bold Yellow if you want me to put someone on the probation list (I will ask for reasons)

Howmany...

Yes there are limits to things:

-There will only be 5 RPG's at a time

-You need 5 people to be interested in your RPG for it to go forward

-You can have up to 3 RPG ideas at a time

-You can moderate 1 RPG at a time

RPG Name: A New Empire Part 2Moderator: GorogPlot:

Two years have passed since the Battle of Endor. Imperial commanders and Moffs break away from High Command on Coruscant, while the remaining loyalists struggle to keep the forces of the Alliance of Free Planets at bay. However, while having a wide base of support, the former Rebellion lacks the military resources to take Coruscant.

In a surprise move, Alliance and Imperial leaders meet on the planet ITHOR. Drawing up a peace treaty, the delegates decide on a new government, transforming the Empire into a constitutional monarchy with the reinstatement of the IMPERIAL SENATE, led by a President appointed by the figurehead Emperor who has been elected by the Grand Moffs. MON MOTHMA is soon appointed to the post of President of the Imperial Senate.

However, some former Rebels refuse to recognize the Treaty of Ithor, and accuse Mon Mothma of having sold out the ideals of the Rebellion to assume control of the galaxy. These Rebels maintain arms in order to establish a true Republic. Similarly, some Imperial worlds denounce what they call a false Empire, and instead aid the Imperial warlords. As the new Empire and its Senate try to establish authority, the Galactic Civil War enters a new phase, manipulated by shadowy individuals with their own agenda...

Character/Faction Based: Character

RPG Name: Age of the WarlordsModerator: FoOPlot:

[c]After the disasterous failure of Palpatine's attempted formation of a unified Galactic Empire the Republic collapsed and the galaxy fell into ten years of darkness. Now three factions, the Thyferran Alliance, the Grand Directorate and the Azure Imperium have arisen and vy for control of the core worlds, using battered fleets with ancient clone wars ships and cheap cruisers, a shadow of the galaxy's former glory.

Over all of this the Church of Truth holds sway, binding the planets of the galaxy under its vicious doctorine. However one team of Directorate scientists on Kuat dare to defy them. In an attempt to create the ultimate weapon they unleash the ultimate sin, they unleash the Force.

Moderators

I've decided to add this section so that people can see at a glance if their favourite moderators or friends are planning an RPG at a glance, or if they're on the probation list. Thus I'm assigning everyone a colour, if you'd prefer a different colour don't hesitate to ask.

ProbationList

This is where a list of people and their crimes are put. If you are on this list it means something you have done has been deemed counter-productive to an RPG or the RPG community. Being on this list does not stop you creating RPG's through the calendar or playing in them. It is here to warn people of what you have done, so that if they don't want to run the risk of you messing something up half-way through.

Crimes include things like godmodding, flaming, spamming, quitting for no valid reason, etc. Basically anything that harms an RPG.

Darth Kiev: For abandoning ANE without reason, causing death of the RPG.

The denizens of the galaxy are paralyzed by fear. The alien YUUZHAN VONG, droid hating fanatics utilizing advanced biotechnology, have invaded the galaxy, taking hundreds of worlds and destroying many more. Even the Jedi Knights, led by LUKE SKYWALKER, have reason to fear the new enemy, for they apparently exist without the Force, rendering them indetectable to the senses of the Jedi.

Hundreds of billions of refugees are scattered across the galaxy. The NEW REPUBLIC, led by Chief of State Borsk Fey'lya, is inefficient at keeping the Yuuzhan Vong at bay, and dozens of planets fall due to the selfishness of Feyl'ya and his Advisory Council. Meanwhile, resigned to the fact that the Republic will inevitably lose the war, an organization of collaborators emerges, the so-called PEACE BRIGADE. The Peace Brigade betrays the rest of the galaxy in aiding the invaders, acting as spies and betraying Jedi to their alien masters.

As all looks bleak, the Yuuzhan Vong continue their rampage. As the Yuuzhan Vong attack the planet of Abregado-Rae, a group of Jedi lead the meager defense forces while attempting to evacuate the planet's citizens from the wrath of the massive Yuuzhan Vong fleet...

Yes billy, it is your but with minor editingYou canceled it & people actually signed upI'm still kinda in love with KOTOR era

Milenko, you just quit from Empire because you didn't have enough time.

Have you ever used wireless internet? Slow as hell?But I've decided to re-join Empire as a different character

Would anyone be interested in a Heroes RPG, that would take place in the MEC? I haven't worked out the nitty gritty details yet, but my idea was to have a different sort of RPG, where the moderator serves as a narrator and kind of guides the story along, taking over the other characters for one post. Again, this is not for sure, I just thought it would be cool to experiment with since Heroes is laid out like a comic book. There doesn't seem to be much interest for any of my Star Wars RPGs anyways.

LOL the sign-ups thread seems to have been dead for months...and yes I know I need to change my sig. So, a little Heroes RP'ing, anyone? Please say yes, Heroes is such a great show and presents a lot of opportunities.

Greetings gentlemen, Imperial_Persia greets you all a fond hello. As some of you may have heard from me already, I intend to return here for the summer and finish my unfinished projects.

I see that there are mostly the familiar faces here, which pleases me immensely, and I'm happy to see we finally have Sol back. Hello!

Anyway, a little explanation is underway.

First, my Fan Fic, "Chronicle of the Eriaduan Emperors" is still being written and I intend to release the next part ASAP.

Second, the actual Old Republic series of RPG's (So helpfully started by Melkor all that time ago...) is something I would like to revisit and finally come to a conclusion of sorts if possible. I always enjoyed the series and I think it has potential. Any opinions?

Third, another great series that was never finished would be Empire's Bane, superbly written and very original. I don't know if Melkor has any plans for a sequel or not, but I'd be thrilled if he made one.

Fourth and finally, Rebirth of Darkness, the RPG idea that wouldn't die. The brainchild of DarkSideFire right before he left, it was on the RPG Calender slated for release by me somewhere in the future. It had potential from what I can see and I'd love to see it done.

Of course, I'll wait until the current crop of RPG's have concluded.

So... does anyone have anything to say?

Sic Transit Gloria.

Merai: The fact that the Fourth Reich managed to blossom in SWU back in the summer before a mod FINALLY noticed what was going on just proves Dray, Blackie et al's point.

So, is there enough interest for me to start a sign-ups thread for a Heroes RPG? I'm out of school, so I'll be able to be very active as a moderator, until my trips. I may or may not be able to access the internet during that time, so I might appoint a vice-mod to mod in my place during those trips.

Hello again my friends, it is half term at last, so I have some time on my hands and I can try to get the calendar running smoothly again.

Oh and Milenko, just in case no one has mentioned it I should mention that KotOR RPG's especially KotOR II ones tend to be a bit of a flop, so are you sure you want me to put it up?
